Messed up windows driver possibly. Did you try to uninstall and reinstall iTunes?! And also check if the ports are fine?!

iTunes probably doesn’t support windows 7 anymore. Your best bet is to try with windows 10.

I agree that drivers or some components of iTunes can be damaged. Re-install is a good idea. Note that all Apple apps and services like Bonjour and others should be re-installed as well. But I do not agree that problem is in Windows version. I have Windows 7 and everything is working just great with iPad and iPhone.

Do you have an option - USB accessories - under Touch ID & passcode?!

If that’s turned off then you need to authenticate your iPad with Touch ID or passcode when you connect it to your computer, then only it will start charging.
